What they actually ask
The question shapes this round uses. Larpy does not read these out. It builds each one from your own resume, because the generic version is the one you have already rehearsed.
- “Tell me about a time you failed or made a mistake. What did you learn?”
- “Describe a time you influenced or persuaded a stakeholder without formal authority.”
- “Tell me about a difficult client or stakeholder and how you handled it.”
- “Tell me about a time you faced an ethical dilemma or had to do the right thing under pressure.”
- “Why Deloitte, and why now, what makes this the right move for you?”
What this round is judged on
- Leadership and teaming · influence without formal authority
- Resilience · turning challenges into results, learning from failure
- Aptitude for the role · seniority-appropriate judgment
- Integrity · doing the right thing under pressure
- Motivation · durable, specific reasons for Deloitte

What happens in each stage›
- Application + resume screen
- Standard ATS submission and resume review. Not simulated.
- Online assessment / job simulation (campus & some pipelines)
- Game-style or scenario-based assessment; common for campus/UK early-careers. Not confirmed on an official US page and not a spoken round, so not simulated.
- First-round behavioral / competency interview (spoken)
- Phone or live video with a recruiter or manager, 30-45 min. Structured 'tell me about a time' questions plus motivation/fit. Simulated.
- Final round / interview day (behavioral portion, spoken)
- One to two back-to-back interviews with senior managers/partners. For consulting this day also holds the case (excluded); the behavioral/fit half is simulated.
- Decision, offer, and onboard
- Written offer typically within one week of the final interview. Not simulated.
Sources
Built from what Deloitte publishes about its own process. No leaked question lists. The questions you get are generated against your own resume, so they are not from anyone else's interview.
Verbatim example behavioral questions; STAR method instruction; competencies assessed (track record, communication, leadership and teaming, aptitude); firm draws (impact, celebrated for who you are, curiosity).
"Expect two to three rounds of interviews, via either telephone, video, or in person"; behavioral/technical/case mix depending on role; funnel stages; offer within one week of final interview.
Describes a LIVE synchronous video interview ('treat your video interview as though you are in the room with the other person'), contradicting a universal one-way/recorded round.
